It did till it turned out to be a tad over 1mm to thick for the roof to close correctly, so its been done again in a grey soft cloth proper thickness too and a happy roof

Just checking: this isn't the torque setting you've installed that big 41mm ball joint into the hub at is it?

You've been busy Husky! As regards the little Torx screws holding brake discs to the hub: I always use a small impact driver to remove them. It that fails, they're easy to drill out...

I'm not certain, but think "9HR" and "RGH" are engine codes - if I'm correct they should be part of your car's VIN number. Characters 6,7,8 should match:

Ive just messaged the seller , we'll another seller they only needed the vin so fingers crossed this is all that's needed , the only difference i think they might be getting fussy over isMattBLancs wrote: Today, 20:46 I'm not certain, but think "9HR" and "RGH" are engine codes - if I'm correct they should be part of your car's VIN number.

1 petrol drive shafts are not intended for diesel
2. 1.6hdi and 2.0hdi shafts are compatible
3. 5 speed box or 6 .
Which mines a 1.6hdi 6 speed , I'll just wait and see what this other seller comes back to me with.
